9 years later and still probably the best sounding tone of all imo.
Absolutely!the sound and tone its a dreem of ever metal guitarist
@Black Orbit i think just reef..i dont know the name of song
I fucking agree
@@matiasx1996 o fucking k
Ola suonds better with Randall Satan .. it's angrier and more aggressive
It's incredible how much the bass adds to the overall tone. It sounds like 10x more awesome with the bass tagging along, not to say the guitar alone isn't awesome... just that it's not super heavy without the bass.
Well yeah, that is how mixing works. You don't want the guitar to have too much bass, because then, it just simply becomes a low end mush of a sound. You want to have the bass more between 4 and 6, if it is too high, it just competes with the sound of the bass, and if it is too low, when the guitar is playing on its own, it sounds super thin and just sound like crap, because it loses all of its body. Just another example of how you need to balance your tone to get the right sound for what you are looking for.
alez wright- what if the bass is on 8 and the mids are dimed, i have the low set to 9 oclock and mids dimed too along withe te mid freq on my mxr fullbore metal, how would that sound?
i meant bass 8 on the amp abd mids dined oh the amp too
Joseph Madden Depends on what amplifier you own, if you are using a 15w solid state, that would be fine. But, if you have a 50+ watt tube amp, it will become wayyyy too bassy, especially in a live setting. I would also recommend lowering the mid frequency to about up and down, and maybe lower the midrange, simply to add some more cutting girth to the amp without muddying the sh!t out of it.
i use a randall rg1503 150w solid state head, it dosent siund muddy at all, it sounds really tight and chunky, i dont like the sound of the pedal with the frequency nob anywhere else but dimed same with the mid nob, also turning the bass and mids down just makes it sound scratchy and thin
This is the most badass and unforgiving amp in existence haha, so extremely responsive and sharp, that notes literally explode off the speakers before you hit a string
Best tone you ever had Ola! Just my opinion. Cheers!!!
i think it is one of his best tones also ...im thinking about getting the Mark V
Did you get it? If so how u like?
I just got the mark v 90 with 4x12 v30 Love it .. world class
the tones in ola englunds mark v play thru video are very accurate .
This Amp is THE BEAST
THE best metal demo of the V I have ever heard. I'm telling you these other metal amps might slay as far as low end punch, but the V just kills for articulate, mid-punchy, rhythm and solos. Really hard for find a metal amp that does rhythm AND solos well. And Metal is just the tip of the iceberg with the V. I switched to EL34's and love the classic and heavy rock sounds I'm getting,
11 years later and still probably the best sounding tone of all time not gonna lie
omgosh... this is the heaviest tone i've ever heard in my life. sick video Ola, i think i just found my dream tone
hey, how's ur life going?
You need to listen to more heavy metal LOL
This got to be in the top 3 sickest high gains sounds i've ever heard! It isn't hard to make an argument and put it up there on the throne of them all either...
easily one of my best artist out there. perfect.
This is the best guitar tone I have ever heard. This is the tone that I've been searching for my entire life. PLEEEEEASE tell me that you'd consider making an AxeFx2 tone match setting for it. Its fucking AMAZING.
You can get pretty close with the AxeFx2 Mark iv model and ML Sound Labs' Misha Mix 08 IR (part of their cab pack 13 ML USA). I can send you a patch if you still have your axefx.
0:47
Bass just turns the awesomeness of the sound into perfection!
Yeah Ola you really know how to make a brutal sound!
The Mark series never disappoints. I think the V is the best one yet but the 2c petrucci one is calling my name too.
best sounding amp I´ve heard
nice demo Ola, you have inspired me to buy a Mesa Mark V...picking it up this evening... thanks, as always , great demos and playing! cheers!
This is the exact 47th time (counting) I watch this video. The tune is the most perfect tune I've ever heard in my life, it's your best tune (in my opinion), and because of this brutal song. Fuck yeah, Ola!
This is the best Ola tone ever!
As quoted from the Mark V manual from mesa boogie,
'This section determines the overall output level (playing volume) of the MARK V ONLY when the Rear Panel EFX LOOP is engaged (switch up - LOOP ACTIVE position) and the Effects Loop is in the signal path.'
So FX loop is disengaged and he doesn't need the solo boost as it's a recording.
@Dekzan - IMO the Mark IV and V have way more saturation than the rectos. The recto's have a very distinct tone though, little harsher than the Marks. Again IMO, I don't like a recto without a boost. The marks play better without any boost.
This is one of my favorite tones of yours. It's just muscular sounding. Powerful but not overwhelmingly gainy.
one of the best sounding amps on the market...
I seriously vote for this. Go, Ola!!
you're right!
Young Ola is the quiet Ola. That is a killer tone my man💕💕💕💕
Might I add that this song is (in my opinion) a pure riffological awesomeness !!!!
I like the feel of Machinehead in your songs from now and then.
Needless to say... You are one of my favorite *music making people* lately.
\m/
Badass demo guys! Thanks for making the only sound demo videos that actually show you everything that's going on.
I play them and the marshall's every time but I still feel like the spidervalve mkII can compete with them. It's all in the EQ and how well you place your mic. Ola is a genius at mixing so he gets the sound he wants every time
back to the old days, nice to see you again with a mesa
most versatile, best sounding amp in the world IMHO. Some say it's more flat than the rectifier, I would put it this way: its sound is fuller.
Shame I don't even have money to buy a $250 amp, if I had money I would go all the way for a Mark V and a Rect 4x12.
Your best video since Savage times.
Amazing sound - IMO the best in it's segment. It's clear, brutal and waaaarm!
everything about this is incredible.
Very cool amp demo, I like how you isolated the guitar at one point just so we could hear that outside of the rest of the mix.
That tone...omg. Just one word to describe it. BABYCRUSHING.
Great playing as always - sounds crushing, Mark V has a tremendous in your face aggressive tone, takes a little more effort to dial in but worth it.
Pro editing and demonstration, you are one of a kind Ola!
the drum intro was almost exactly the one in war from meshuggah, except not that crazy ahahah great videos ola, thx for posting
Im a boogie guy but I really thought that sounded fantastic. My favourite tone so far. Great video too
This is so awesome! Possibly your best gear testing video ever!
I just falling in love...
When i brought the album "The Mask of Sanity" from "Scarpoint", I just can't stop listening that shit!
And then I brought the album "Rejects" from "Feared" and drive me crazy...
I just want another disk from Ola or i will die!!
One of the best guitarrists what i ever hear!!
Respect Ola! :D
I dont listen to you for the tone but for the tunes
am i the only one who thinks this version was much better than the orginal "warbound"?
Jeroen Reyns Absolutely dude, the entire Furor Incarnatus just sounds a little weird to me, probably the lack the of low-end saturation I guess
He gets a great bass guitar tone; it makes such a big a difference
I love all your videos, but my favorite tones of yours have always been when you play Mark amps. Just solid, crunchy, dry destruction.
The two different takes one left side one right, gives it a way bigger sound because it's almost doubled in a way and it makes it stereo, makes the tone sound bigger. Metallica used to record a bunch of takes to get their tone: middles' left's right's and then some.
You make every amp you demo sound great.
always the best sound here. keep on doing this fantastic work dude!
How is it possible to capture that much awesome with just a SM57!?
that is a great point....a mark 5 will last for decades...it may need some repairs and of course some tubes , but being a more mechanical device it will be repairable...how long will the window be on axe fx2 repair??...10 years?Probably more like 5-7, then the parts will be obsolete.Fractal only has a year warranty compared to i think 5 for mesa..having said that, I wish i could get a mark5 and an axe2, but must pick only one
THIS.IS.AWESOME.BEST.VIDEO. IVE.SEEN.FOR.AN.AMP.DEMO
only because im into this heavy shit, more than hearing a demo on all the clean channels. Forget that shit. Save those videos for the weekend warriors.
Thanks
Great song Ola. This is my one of my favorite amps.
I think I can say you are one of the few ones that make me dream. Thanx.
Man, you do the best videos...

Strictly 7 Guitars - Mesa Mark V - Mesa 4x12 - SM57 Read the description more often :p
Love your breaks and solos man adds some beauty to the brutality .
i love the mark v's i only got to play the combos at a local music store but it was amazing every time i used it
I love how this one sounds on my headphones man fucken A good way to wake up
I love your randall...I REALLY do, but my favorite tones from you all come from the Mesas. I guess that's just more of my thing!
def. my favorite mesa of all time. Still saving for one!
That is amazing, my settings are damn near where his are both on the channel and in the eq section. Great amp!
Dave is currently using a Marshall JVM410h. They sound great, many agree that the JVM series is the best thing Marshall came out with in many years. And they can get to 80's thrash metal territory, back when about everyone was using Marshall JCM800's. I've played one at 2 gigs and liked it a lot, classic sound. If you really want to get a mesa, my personnal choice would be a rectifier. I've owned a dual rectifier and and tried a mark iv and for me there was no hesitation. Big Megadeth fan btw.
Absolutely amazing amp. Fat, yet tight at the same time. Too bad they are so god damn expensive.
+NotSaint91 Lol you don't get to own an "amazing amp" without wasting a lot of bucks. That's the universal rule
+Randall Halo you don't waste money on them, they're excellent investments for serious musicians.
Jimmy Danger Gonzalez Sorry that was some poor choice of words there. I meant "spending"
One of the best sounds you ever got! Compare it with the diezel hagen vid...the hagen is almost blurry comparatively.
By far your best tone!
Ola, thanks for breaking down the signal chain on the guitar and on recording!!! My signal chain isa wah straight to amp on the front and a silencer in the effects loop.
this is the most brutal tone of your videos...;) mesa ftw
No that was just as an example to hear what a single track sounds like. In the mix I'm using one left and one right guitar. Nothing else.
Awesome, you opened my third eye as a thrasher with this performance and sound :)
fucking brutal. blows me away how even simple riffs can sound amazing coming from you.... let alone the advanced ones.
try engl savage/blackmore too. they have all the articulation, mids and the soothing solo tone too, but with a different and a bit smoother gain structure. imo the blackmore has an even nicer palm mute than the MK V (and is overall the best amp i've ever played and owned).
You have to record it twice, and pan each one. That's what gives it the widening effect.
He's bypassed the effects loop, which also bypasses the master volume control on this particular amp. The channel volume control is up and most likely QUITE loud.
0:07. I hate when that happens.
Alex Wright Its always the fucking string I don't have an extra. (E,A,D)
Mark iic plus 44 Yep, same here. I have soooo many extra g and b strings, it is ridiculous.
Alex Wright It breaks for you at the bridge right?
Mark iic plus 44 Yep. Every damn time.
Alex Wright I always felt that I did something wrong because my A string always did that. Then one of my metal buddies says he goes through low E strings like tissues.
I had road king II. It's a nice over-all machine, does cleans nicely, but I don't think it's a metal monster. You've got to push it too far to get a somewhat acceptable metal tone. I had to crank gain all the way to 8.5-9 to get nice tight and punchy sound and that's just doesn't feel right for me for some reason. I sold it and never looked back. If you want a nice metal amp, look into 5150. These are just AWESOME all the way.
ive talked to alot of mark v owners,most of them use the mark iv setting as their main tone.Infact i know most of them said they liked the mark iv much better than the V.
Love this song and this amp! I use one with a mode 4 cab and mesa grid slammer overdrive in front.sounds amazing:)
Man your guitar sound is the best i hear !!!
your best tone yet. love it! greetings from italy!
You got really technical with your multi-angle images and isolation of the diffrent instruments Ola, It's really good how you seperated the sounds - I'm sure we'll see that again from you in your next videos. ;) I wish I could also play with these super amplifiers you review all the time bro' Looks like so much fun.
The song's called 53 by Feared, Ola's own band!
ola, the solo from this song made me jizz and cry at the same time... way to go in using that delay pedal...
mesa now makes distortion pedals. Their new Throttle Box pedal is fairly good. It has that famous sound. Although, I just picked up my Mark V yesterday for $1500 used MINT. I felt that the throttle box just wasn't worth the $200 for that sound. Although, Try the pedal called "Triple Wreck" its a little pricy but fuck me it sounds incredible, I guarantee you will find your tone with that. you wont regret it....
The best video ever from Ola Englund(o)?! Love this song, warbound! Ola you're a blessed guy, if you believe in that stuff hahahaha \m/
Just keep doing this metal thing that makes us more alive!
that solo man thrives with feeling love it
dude, this song rules
Amazing demo of the head! This song sounds fabulous!
Firstly, sweet work Ola, like everytime! Secondly I just tabbed this song with solo, bass and drums, it has certanly some mistakes but overall it's clean I think, spent a day to make it, hope you will enjoy it, I just submitted this on ultimate-guitar, it will apear in 48 hours i think Or pm me and I will send you the tab if you wanna
dude you're forever right, but the kemper can model the mesa, has no tube costs, and the axe fx has well, everything. whatever i go with, i just don't want buyers remorse 2 weeks down the road because none of these are $200-$300 replaceables. I've been saving for 8 months and sold 2 guitars to get here... know what i mean?
Thanks a lot man i actually just tried out a 5150 at my local music store and it sounded amazing and they said they will cut me a good deal on it cause thats where i bought my guitar and everything.
Mark V and EVH 5150 are my fav amps...
This may be the best tone in quite some time!
I'm not big into playing the heavy stuff anymore, but damn I want to get hammered and play some metal with Ola. Any instrument. Let's go.
Play drums at all? If so, do feel free to come and get stoned with me and my girlfriend and play some punk rock..... I throw some beer in the fridge for you, we don't really drink, but if you meet us, you will think we are drunk in perpetuity.
I play the drums strictly for fun, but they are also the instrument I'm worst at hahah. Always down for a jam, brother. What kind of punk are you into?
turnthatuptoeleven1 Well, anything from the snottiest CV type shit to the old peace-punk bands to some of the new grindcore and crust. Just has to increase my pulse a little bit, and I'm there. I bet you're a better drummer than me. I only even own a bass-drum (flipped up on a stand so I can hit it with a hand-held beater) hat and snare. Beater in my right hand, regular stick in my left, click in my headphones, only because I need to be able to record and give CDs away and email MP3's and upload crappy slideshows with my songs for the ego-massage that comes with it.
1:00 - The description in the video says the Mark IV setting is being used, but the image most certainly looks as though the switch is flipped to the Extreme setting. Maybe I'm just blind lol
0:36 Maaaan, sounds so gooood!
Yeah dude! Nasty! Ola, i’m curious if this amp is way too loud to play smaller clubs and theater type venues where sometimes volume is an issue? I’m concerned that without being able to crank it up it would lack bite or saturation. Thanks dude, love your videos, thank you for your time.
The best tone of real metal
that greenhouse delay pedal sounds amazing!!
I am learning lots from hearing your videos, thanks.
Love this tone! I have a Mark V and can almost get a similar tone, but I always seem to need a boost out front to tighten the lower mids. I think those SD distortions might be your secret weapon.
